This from Eric Haak:
Here are some images from a double fatal still & box back on February 28th at 8642 S. Hermitage. The fire was well advanced before the first companies landed on the scene but an aggressive interior attack and search efforts were initiated despite those conditions. Sadly, two victims were located during the primary search. Both were transported and pronounced at local hospitals.

This from Dieterich Herndobler:
While browsing 5280fire.com, I came across West Chicago’s former Rescue 9. It is now with a fire department in Mesa County, Colorado. Not sure which department as it is still looks like it did with West Chicago FPD.
